Wasteland: My Items Can Be Infinitely Upgraded

Chapter 692 - 331: Calm in the Face of Danger, the Traitor to the Clan



At this moment, facing an attack from two Tier Two giant beasts front and back, the front one is okay, just an early-stage Tier Two Desolate Wolf Beast, but the giant wolf behind is a peak Tier Two ancient being. Although its aura has diminished somewhat, it still manages to intimidate Han Tao completely.

This intimidation from the giant wolf, under such close proximity, leaves Han Tao, a Rock Horse Warrior, no chance of escape.

Right now, his legs are weak, and his power armor, after a long trek, is down to only the basic semi-dormant power level, necessary for maintaining ventilation and cooling. He needs to use a portable solar panel to charge it for several hours to provide the minimum kinetic assistance.

That is to say, the power armor at this moment not only fails to provide any assistance in reducing pressure but also makes the wearer feel burdened by heavy armor.

However, without the cooling function of the power armor, Han Tao, after running twenty kilometers, would only die from overheating. Additionally, the armor’s built-in water circulation system collects large amounts of sweat, filters it, and reintroduces it into the wearer’s body.

It can be said that without a basic set of power armor, even a Tier Two Evolver would find it difficult to trek alone for over a thousand kilometers through the edge of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, under the blazing sun and scorching heat, and out of the desert wilderness.

After all, even if one can withstand the exposure to the scorching sun, the surrounding high temperatures require a substantial intake of water to replenish the evaporation loss of sweat.

So, after sprinting for twenty kilometers, even though his power armor is down to less than ten percent of its low power, Han Tao hasn’t discarded this burden, continuing his escape alone.

However, the dire consequences of this action have now come to fruition.

In Han Tao’s view, he has already escaped twenty kilometers away from the center of the battle. Even Lin Feng’s unbelievably powerful cannon makes only low-frequency, muffled explosive sounds at such a distance.

At such a far distance, coupled with the advanced combat power of the Desert Wolf Race, with Leader Wolf Ao and other Desolate Wolf Beasts fighting to resolve the nuisance of the Salvation Army...

It’s simply impossible that they would pay attention to him, a mere early-stage Rock Horse Warrior. Even if the battle with Oasis Town reached a stalemate, and they wanted to enhance the Desolate Wolf Beasts’ power to break the deadlock, at most, they would send an early-stage Desolate Wolf Beast to hunt the fleeing Rock Horse Warrior.

It is certain that the peak Tier Two Wolf Ao would not personally lead a team to chase and kill.

After all, the presence of Wolf Ao here would indicate that Oasis Town has either been broken by the Evolved Desolate Wolf Army, and all the other Tier Two Evolvers have been dealt with, or Oasis Town has successfully held its ground, repelling all attacks from the Wolf Race.

But either scenario couldn’t possibly have unfolded within just a few minutes.

At least a few hours are needed to determine the outcome.

So Han Tao planned to continue north along the edge of the Scorching Sun Forbidden Area, using the scorching heat to clear the pheromones left along the way to prevent being tracked by subsequent pursuers from the Desert Wolf Race.

Unfortunately, Han Tao couldn’t figure out why the Desert Wolf Race moved so quickly.

Knowing that escape was impossible, Han Tao slowly turned around, facing the bloodied mouth of Wolf Ao.

The intense panic at the prospect of imminent death actually brought him a cold calmness.

Subsequently, he noticed something unusual...

That would be the prehistoric giant beast before him; its former peak Tier Two terrifying pressure had seemingly weakened a bit compared to before.

Given Han Tao’s evolution level and overstressed state, it would have been difficult to notice this, but as they drew closer, Wolf Ao’s enormous wolf head had already bent down toward Han Tao’s face, the scent of blood overwhelming.

Thus, as Han Tao calmed down, he unexpectedly detected something unusual about this ancient giant beast.

Its aura was not stable.

Even though this place is twenty kilometers away from the battlefield, for a peak Tier Two giant beast, it’s as easy as running two hundred meters on a sports field.

It shouldn’t have affected Wolf Ao’s condition at all.

But now its breathing seemed hurried and disordered, clearly indicating that even such a short twenty-kilometer distance had significantly drained Wolf Ao.

And this precisely indicated that Wolf Ao’s condition was worse than it outwardly appeared.

Han Tao immediately thought of a possibility.

That being Lin Feng, a Gunpowder Ability User, teaming up successfully with Bai Ye, the leader of the Salvation Army, to deal a deadly blow to the giant beast before him.

The ultimate cannon in their hands surely hit Wolf Ao accurately, causing it severe injuries, so much so that being unable to fight again after a second retreat, completely losing the courage to attack Oasis Town.

Thus, in order to recover the losses, it personally came to capture him, a small early-stage Rock Horse Giant Beast.

In fact, Wolf Ao at this moment was equally surprised.

Because the target it had been pursuing was only an early Tier Two, and judging by the state of utter exhaustion after the desperate escape...

Estimated to be at most barely Level 21, with an aura barely touching the Level 20 Tier Two threshold.

Such an awkward situation left Wolf Ao’s initial plan in complete ruins.

It had initially expected the Rock Horse Warrior before it to unleash an aura comparable to a mid-Tier Two intensity, or at least be at the early staged upper limit, an evolution level of Level 23.

If it truly was mid-Tier Two, it could use the flesh of this Rock Horse Warrior to replenish its depleted cellular structures.

If it was only Level 23, it could give the warrior to the early-stage Desolate Wolf Beast Lang San in front of it, allowing Lang San to step into the early staged upper limit of Tier Two as soon as possible, laying a foundation for advancing to the Mid-Term Giant Wolf.
